Chapter 72 WAITING FOR HER

RAPHAEL’S P O V

I arrived home at eight o'clock in the evening, and noticed that Naya wasn't home yet. I was used of her waiting for me in the living room, telling me that she waited for me, so that we could eat dinner together that she had prepared. I was the one who prepared dinner for her this time, but I was so exhausted that I fell asleep on the couch waiting for her.

I became aware of a weight on my shoulder, and as I slowly opened my eyes, I saw that Naya had fallen asleep beside me, her proximity made me smell the sweet scent of her hair. I sighed as I glanced at the clock, and realized that it was nearly eleven in the evening.

‘‘Naya…’’ I gently shook her thigh, waking her up, but all she did was murmur something I couldn’t make out and gradually scooted closer to me. The bolt of heat that seared from the contact of our skin flooded over me in tidal waves of yearning that was threatening to drown me.

Damn it!
